Tyler Bate vs TJP First Round match of the Cruiserweight Championship Tournament
Previously, I talked about how Drake Maverick was the new general manager of 205 Live. The first action of Maverick was to create a 16 man tournament for the vacant cruiserweight championship.

With a 16 man tournament announced (more on that later), this would be a great time to introduce new talent to 205 live. Even if it's only temporary bringing in known talent such as Tyler Bate, Roderick Strong or other NXT Superstars.
Having the current cruiserweights of 205 Live face off against well-known Superstars of NXT will give the tournament a special feel of anyone can show up.
This week we saw Tyler Bate, from the UK championship Division, face off against TJP. In a great match, this was a nice taste of what we can expect if other Superstars decided to step up to face the cruiserweights.

Next week Roderick Strong will take on Hideo Itami in the first round of the vacant Cruiserweight championship. If they have a match half as good as they had on NXT, we are in for a treat.
Possible people I'd love to see enter the tournament

Rey Mysterio

Dallas Barnes
Hey Everybody! My name is Dallas Barnes i'm currently 22 years old, I was born and raised in a small city called New Bedford , Massachusetts . I don't even know where to start with my love for wrestling. I started watching in 2005 few months after my mother unfortunately passed away , but i didn't start with WWE like most people I started with a small promotion pulling all the stops to get noticed called TNA Wrestling. The high flying action had me totally forgetting about the anger and sadness i had in my heart for 2 hours and enjoy wrestling.
Since then I haven't looked back on my love for wrestling. Wrestling has been there for me in my darkness times and even now is still for me , I am currently in a wheelchair and wrestling helps me escape reality. I watch hours of wrestling a day so I figured why not enlighten people with my thoughts on hot topics in wrestling! I can't wait to share my thoughts with you guys and get to know you all!
